Article I
MERGER

1.1 Merger. At the Merger Effective Time, subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the certificate of merger to be filed relating to the Merger substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Certificate of Merger”), and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law, SPAC and Merger Sub shall consummate the Merger, pursuant to which Merger Sub shall be merged with and into SPAC with SPAC being the surviving entity, following which the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall cease and SPAC shall continue as the surviving company and a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Holdings. SPAC, as the surviving company after the Merger, is hereinafter referred to for the periods at and after the Merger Effective Time as the “Surviving Company”.

1.2 Merger Effective Time. SPAC, Merger Sub and Holdings shall cause the Merger to be consummated by filing the executed Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in accordance with Section 251 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. The Merger shall become effective at the time when the Certificate of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ has been duly filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or at such later time as may be agreed by SPAC and Merger Sub (with the prior written consent of the Company) in writing and specified in the Certificate of Merger (the “Merger Effective Time”).

1.3 Effect of the Merger. At the Merger Effective Time, the effect of the Merger shall be as provided in this Agreement, the Certificate of Merger and the applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Merger Effective Time, all the property, rights, privileges, agreements, powers and franchises, debts, Liabilities, duties and obligations of SPAC and Merger Sub shall become the property, rights, privileges, agreements, powers and franchises, debts, Liabilities, duties and obligations of the Surviving Company (including all rights and obligations with respect to the Trust Account), which shall include the assumption by the Surviving Company of any and all agreements, covenants, duties and obligations of SPAC and Merger Sub set forth in this Agreement to be performed after the Merger Effective Time.

1.4 Organizational Documents. The certificate of incorporation and bylaws of Merger Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time shall be the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Company (except that references to the name “HP Merger Subsidiary Corp.” shall be changed to “Home Plate Acquisition Corporation”) following the Merger Effective Time until thereafter amended in accordance with such articles of incorporation and bylaws and applicable Law.

1.5 Directors and Officers of Surviving Company. At the Merger Effective Time, the directors and officers of the Surviving Company shall be the persons designated by the Company, which designation shall be delivered to SPAC in writing at least three (3) Business Days before the Closing Date, each to hold office in accordance with the Organizational Documents of the Surviving Company until their resignation or removal in accordance with the Organizational Documents of the Surviving Company or until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified. At the Merger Effective Time, the board of directors and officers of SPAC shall automatically cease to hold office.

1.6 Effect of Merger on SPAC Securities and Merger Sub Shares.

(a) SPAC Unit Separation. Immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time, each SPAC Public Unit that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time shall be automatically detached and the holder thereof shall be deemed to hold one share of SPAC Class A Common Stock and one-half of a SPAC Redeemable Warrant in accordance with the terms of the applicable SPAC Public Unit (the “Unit Separation”); provided that if a holder of SPAC Public Units would be entitled to receive a fraction of a SPAC Redeemable Warrant upon the Unit Separation, the number of SPAC Redeemable Warrants to be issued to such holder upon the Unit Separation shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number of SPAC Redeemable Warrants without cash settlement for such rounded fraction. The detached SPAC Securities shall be converted in accordance with the applicable terms of this Section 1.6.

(b) SPAC Shares. At the Merger Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any Party or the holders of securities of SPAC or Holdings, after giving effect to the Unit Separation referred to in Section 1.6(a), each SPAC Share that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time (other than any Excluded Shares and Redeeming SPAC Shares) shall thereupon be converted into, and the holder of such SPAC Share shall be entitled to receive, the Per Share Merger Consideration. All of the SPAC Shares converted into the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration pursuant to this Section 1.6(b) shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist at the Merger Effective Time, and each holder of a certificate previously representing any such SPAC Shares shall thereafter cease to have any rights with respect to such securities, except the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration into which such SPAC Shares shall have been converted in the Merger.

(c) SPAC Warrants. At the Merger Effective Time, each SPAC Warrant (whether or not a whole warrant) that is outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time (but after giving effect to the Unit Separation referred to in Section 1.6(a)) shall, pursuant to and in accordance with (i) Section 4.4 of the Warrant Agreement, between SPAC and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company dated September 29, 2021 (as amended by the Warrant Assumption Agreement) and (ii) the Warrant Assumption Agreement, automatically and irrevocably be modified to provide that such SPAC Warrant shall no longer entitle the holder thereof to purchase the amount of SPAC Shares set forth therein and in substitution thereof such SPAC Warrant shall entitle the holder thereof to acquire such equal number of Holdings Common Shares per such SPAC Warrant.

(d) Excluded Shares. At the Merger Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any Party or the SPAC Shareholders, each Excluded Share that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, without any conversion thereof and no consideration shall be paid with respect thereto.

(e) Redeeming SPAC Shares. At the Merger Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any Party, the SPAC Shareholders or Holdings, each Redeeming SPAC Share that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time (if any) shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of such Redeeming SPAC Shares shall thereafter cease to have any rights with respect to such securities except the right to be paid a pro rata share of the Redemption Amount in accordance with the SPAC Charter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, once the holder of a share of SPAC Class A Common Stock has validly exercised its Redemption Right with respect to such security, such holder’s rights with respect to such security shall be limited to the right to receive a pro rata share of the Redemption Amount in accordance with the SPAC Charter.

(f) Merger Sub Shares. At the Merger Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any Party, the SPAC Shareholders or Holdings, each Merger Sub Share that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time shall be converted into and become one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock of the Surviving Company.

(g) No Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 1.6, none of the Surviving Company, Holdings, the Company or any other Party shall be liable to any Person for any amount properly paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

1.7 Satisfaction of Rights. All securities issued upon the surrender of SPAC Securities in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such securities; provided that any restrictions on the sale and transfer of SPAC Securities shall also apply to the Holdings Securities so issued in exchange.

1.8 Lost, Stolen or Destroyed SPAC Certificates. In the event any certificates representing SPAC Securities shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of such fact and indemnity by the Person claiming such certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, Holdings shall issue, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificates, as the case may be, such securities, as may be required pursuant to Section 1.6.

1.9 Stock Transfer Books. At the Merger Effective Time, the register of members of SPAC shall be closed, and there shall be no further registration of transfers of SPAC Securities thereafter on the records of SPAC.

1.10 Appointment of Transfer Agent. Prior to the Closing, Holdings shall appoint a transfer agent acceptable to the Company (the “Transfer Agent”), as its agent, for the purpose of (a) exchanging SPAC Securities for Holdings Securities and (b) issuing Exchange Shares. The Transfer Agent shall (i) exchange SPAC Securities for Holdings Securities, (ii) issue Exchange Shares, and (iii) take or cause to be taken such actions as are necessary to update Holdings’ register of members to reflect the actions contemplated by clauses (i) and (ii) of this sentence, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and, to the extent applicable, the Certificate of Merger, the Delaware General Corporation Law and customary transfer agent procedures and the rules and regulations of the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), in each case in a form approved by the Company.

1.11 Exchange of Book-Entry Shares.

(a) Exchange Procedures. At the Merger Effective Time, Holdings shall issue all Holdings Common Shares to be issued as the Per Share Merger Consideration. As soon as practicable after the Merger Effective Time (and in no event later than five (5) Business Days after the Merger Effective Time), Holdings shall cause the Transfer Agent to mail to each holder of record of SPAC Shares which were converted pursuant to Section 1.6(b) into the Per Share Merger Consideration instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the SPAC Shares in exchange for the Per Share Merger Consideration in a form acceptable to the Company. Upon receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Transfer Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Transfer Agent may reasonably request), the holder of a SPAC Share which was converted pursuant to Section 1.6(b) into the Per Share Merger Consideration shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, subject to any required withholding Taxes, the Per Share Merger Consideration in book-entry form, without interest (subject to any applicable withholding Tax), for each SPAC Share surrendered. The Holdings Common Shares to be delivered as the Per Share Merger Consideration shall be settled through DTC and issued in uncertificated book-entry form through the customary procedures of DTC, unless a physical Holdings Common Share is required by applicable Law, in which case Holdings and the Company shall jointly cause the Transfer Agent to promptly send certificates representing such Holdings Common Shares to such holder. If payment of the Per Share Merger Consideration is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered SPAC Share in exchange therefor is registered, it shall be a condition of payment that (i) the Person requesting such exchange present proper evidence of transfer or shall otherwise be in proper form for transfer and (ii) the Person requesting such payment shall have paid any transfer and other Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Per Share Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of SPAC Share surrendered or shall have established to the reasonable satisfaction of Holdings and the Company that such Tax either has been paid or is not applicable.

(b) Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Holdings Common Shares. All Holdings Common Shares to be issued as the Per Share Merger Consideration shall be deemed issued and outstanding as of the Merger Effective Time. Subject to the effect of escheat, Tax or other applicable Laws, the holder of whole Holdings Common Shares issued in exchange for SPAC Shares pursuant to Section 1.6(b) will be promptly paid, without interest (subject to any applicable withholding Tax), the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Merger Effective Time and theretofore paid with respect to such whole Holdings Common Shares.

(c) Adjustments to Per Share Merger Consideration. The Per Share Merger Consideration shall be adjusted to reflect appropriately the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change with respect to SPAC Shares or Company Shares occurring on or after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Merger Effective Time.

(d) Termination of Fund. At any time following the first (1^st) anniversary of the Closing Date, Holdings shall be entitled to require the Transfer Agent to deliver to it any funds or other property (including any interest received with respect thereto) that had been made available to the Transfer Agent and which have not been disbursed in accordance with this Article I, and thereafter persons entitled to receive payment pursuant to this Article I shall be entitled to look only to Holdings (subject to abandoned property, escheat or other similar Laws) as general creditors thereof with respect to the delivery of any Per Share Merger Consideration and payment of any dividends or other distributions to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 1.6(b), in each case without interest (subject to any applicable withholding Tax), that may be deliverable or payable upon surrender of any SPAC Shares held by such holders, as determined pursuant to this Agreement, without any interest thereon.

1.12 Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action. If, at any time after the Merger Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the Surviving Company with full right, title and possession to all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of SPAC and Merger Sub, the officers and directors of SPAC and Holdings are fully authorized in the name of their respective entities to take, and will take, all such lawful and necessary action, so long as such action is not inconsistent with this Agreement.

1.13 Tax Consequences. The Parties hereby agree and acknowledge that for U.S. federal income tax purposes, it is intended that (a) taken together, the PIPE Investment, the Share Acquisition, and the Merger will qualify as an exchange under Section 351 of the Code and (b) the Merger will not result in gain being recognized under Section 367(a)(1) of the Code by any stockholder of SPAC (other than for any stockholder that would be a “five-percent transferee shareholder” (within the meaning of United States Treasury Regulations Section 1.367(a)-3(c)(5)(ii)) of Holdings following the transaction that does not enter into a five-year gain recognition agreement (“GRA”) pursuant to United States Treasury Regulations Section 1.367(a)-8(c)) ((a) and (b), together, the “Intended Tax Treatment”). To the extent permitted under applicable Law, (i) the Parties intend that the Merger also qualify as a “reorganization” under Section 368(a) of the Code and (ii) this Agreement is intended to constitute and hereby is adopted as a “plan of reorganization” with respect to the Merger within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3(a) for purposes of Sections 354, 361 and 368 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

Article II
SHARE ACQUISITION

2.1 Exchange of Company Shares. At the Share Acquisition Closing and subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Organizational Documents of the Company, the Company Shareholders shall sell, assign and transfer to Holdings, and Holdings shall purchase, acquire, assume and accept from the Company Shareholders, all of the legal and beneficial title to the Company Shares with full title guarantee, free from all Liens (other than Liens arising as a result of transfer restrictions under applicable securities Laws and the relevant Organizational Documents) and together with all rights attaching to the Company Shares at the Share Acquisition Closing (including the right to receive all distributions, returns of capital and dividends declared, paid or made in respect of the Company Shares after the Share Acquisition Closing). Following the Share Acquisition Closing, the Company will be a wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings.

2.2 Consideration.

(a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the aggregate consideration owed to each Company Shareholder in exchange for such Company Shareholder’s Company Shares shall be the issuance of the Closing Number of Shares at the Share Acquisition Closing and the issuance of the Earnout Shares, subject to and determined in accordance with, Section 2.4, in each case as set out next to the name of the relevant Company Shareholder in the corresponding column of Schedule 1 to this Agreement (in respect of each Company Shareholder, its “Company Shareholder Consideration”).

(b) Holdings shall issue to each Company Shareholder (i) the Closing Number of Shares at the Share Acquisition Closing determined in accordance with Section 2.2(a) and (ii) the Earnout Shares, subject to and determined in accordance with, Section 2.4.

2.3 Transfer of Company Shares and Other Undertakings.

(a) At or prior to the Closing, each Company Shareholder shall deliver or procure the delivery to Holdings of:

(i) a duly executed stock transfer form in respect of its Company Shares to effect the transfer of its Company Shares (the “STFs”);

(i) less than $12.50, then no Earnout Shares shall be issuable under this Section 2.4(e);

In no event will any issuance of Earnout Shares be represented by any negotiable certificates of any kind, and in no event will any holder of a contingent issuance of Earnout Shares take any steps that would render such rights readily marketable.

(h) Holdings shall take such actions as are reasonably requested by the Eligible Company Equityholders to evidence the issuances pursuant to this Section 2.4, including through the provision of an updated register of members showing such issuances (as certified by a director or officer of Holdings responsible for maintaining such register of members or the applicable registrar or the Transfer Agent).

(f) by written notice by SPAC to the Company if (i) there has been a breach by the Company, the Company Shareholders or Holdings of any of their respective representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of such Parties shall have become untrue or inaccurate, in any case, which would result in a failure of a condition set forth in Section 10.3(a) or Section 10.3(b) to be satisfied (treating the Closing Date for such purposes as the date of this Agreement or, if later, the date of such breach (or if the breach is curable, the date by which such breach is required to be cured in the succeeding clause (ii))), and (ii) the breach or inaccuracy is incapable of being cured or is not cured within the earlier of (A) 30 days after written notice of such breach or inaccuracy is provided to the Company by SPAC or (B) the Outside Date; provided that SPAC shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 11.1(f) if at such time the Company would be entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.1(d); or

Article XII
WAIVERS AND RELEASES

12.1 Waiver of Claims Against Trust. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that SPAC has established the Trust Account containing the proceeds of the IPO (including interest accrued from time to time thereon) for the benefit of SPAC Shareholders and that, except as otherwise described in the IPO Prospectus, SPAC may disburse monies from the Trust Account only in the manner described in the IPO Prospectus: (a) to SPAC Shareholders in the event they elect to redeem their shares of SPAC Shares (or Holdings Common Shares upon the Merger) in connection with the consummation of its initial business combination (as such term is used in the IPO Prospectus, the “Business Combination“) or in connection with an amendment to SPAC’s Organizational Documents to extend SPAC’s deadline to consummate a Business Combination, (b) to SPAC Shareholders if the SPAC fails to consummate a Business Combination within the time period specified in the SPAC Organizational Documents after the closing of the IPO, subject to further extension as described by the IPO Prospectus, (c) with respect to any interest earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account, amounts necessary to pay for any Taxes and (d) to SPAC after or concurrently with the consummation of a Business Combination. For and in consideration of SPAC entering into this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, each of Holdings, the Company and the Company Shareholders, on behalf of themselves and the other Company Affiliates, acknowledge and agree that they do not and shall not at any time hereafter have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account or distributions therefrom, or make any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom), regardless of whether such claim arises as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to, this Agreement or any proposed or actual business relationship between SPAC or any of its Representatives, on the one hand, and the Company, Holdings or the Company Shareholders or any Company Affiliate, on the other hand, or any other matter, and regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability (collectively, the “Trust Account Released Claims”). Each of the Company, Holdings and the Company Shareholders, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, hereby irrevocably waives any Trust Account Released Claims that any such Party or any of its Affiliates may have against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) now or in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with SPAC or its Representatives and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever (including for an alleged breach of this Agreement or any other agreement with SPAC). The Company, Holdings and the Company Shareholders each agrees and acknowledges that such irrevocable waiver is material to this Agreement and specifically relied upon by SPAC to induce SPAC to enter in this Agreement, and each of the Company, Holdings and the Company Shareholders further intends and understands such waiver to be valid, binding and enforceable against such Party and each of its Affiliates under applicable Law. To the extent the Company, Holdings or the Company Shareholders or any of their respective Affiliates commences any action or proceeding based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any matter relating to SPAC or its Representatives, which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, monetary relief against SPAC or its Representatives, each of the Company, Holdings and the Company Shareholders hereby acknowledges and agrees that its and its Affiliates’ sole remedy shall be against funds held outside of the Trust Account (including any funds that have been released from the Trust Account or any assets that have been purchased or acquired with any such funds) and that such claim shall not permit such Party or any of its Affiliates (or any Person claiming on any of their behalves or in lieu of them) to have any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or any amounts contained therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trust Account Released Claims and related waivers will not limit or prohibit the Company or any Company Shareholder from (i) pursuing a claim against SPAC, Merger Sub or any other person for (A) specific performance or other equitable relief in connection with the Transactions (including a claim for SPAC to specifically perform its obligations under this Agreement and cause the disbursement of the balance of the cash remaining in the Trust Account (after giving effect to any redemption pursuant to the Redemption Rights)) or (B) for damages (subject to the provisions of this Agreement) for breach of this Agreement against SPAC (or any successor entity) or Merger Sub in the event this Agreement is terminated for any reason and SPAC consummates a Business Combination with another Person or (ii) being entitled to the use of any remaining amounts in the Trust Account following the transactions contemplated by Section 8.20(b).

12.1 Mutual Releases.

(a) Effective as of the Closing, each of SPAC and Holdings, Holdings on behalf of all its Subsidiaries (including the Target Companies) and SPAC on behalf of each other SPAC Affiliate, hereby irrevocably releases and discharges, the Company Shareholders and each other Company Affiliate, and each of their respective current and former directors, managers, officers, partners and employees from and against all liabilities, claims and obligations, whether accrued or contingent, whether known or unknown, whether arising under common law, statute, equity or otherwise, to the extent arising prior to the Closing and based upon, arising out of or related to the Target Companies and their respective businesses, operations, assets and liabilities, the service by any such Company Affiliate as an officer, director, manager, employee or Representative of the Target Companies or to the subject matter of this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents, including the Transactions (other than, and solely with respect to, any of the covenants in this Agreement that survive the Closing); provided, however, that this Section 12.1(a) shall not release or discharge (i) any liability of the Company or any Company Shareholder under this Agreement, any Ancillary Document or the Confidentiality Agreement, (ii) any liability of any current or former employee of the Target Companies or any of their respective Subsidiaries to the extent (A) related to this Agreement, any Ancillary Document or the Transactions or (B) arising out of such employee’s service as an officer, director or employee of the Target Companies or any of their respective Subsidiaries, (iii) any Fraud Claim by SPAC against the Company or any Company Shareholder or (iv) any claims that cannot be waived under applicable Law.

(b) Effective as of the Closing, each Company Shareholder hereby irrevocably releases and discharges SPAC, Holdings, the Target Companies and their respective Subsidiaries, each other SPAC Affiliate and each of their respective current and former directors, managers, officers, partners and employees from and against all liabilities, claims and obligations, whether accrued or contingent, whether known or unknown, whether arising under common law, statute, equity or otherwise, to the extent arising prior to the Closing and based upon, arising out of or related to the Target Companies and their respective Subsidiaries, their respective businesses, operations, assets and liabilities, the service by any such SPAC Affiliate as an officer, director, manager, employee or Representative the Target Companies or any of their respective Subsidiaries or to the subject matter of this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents, including the Transactions (other than, and solely with respect to, any of the covenants in this Agreement that survive the Closing); provided, however, that this Section 12.1(b) shall not release or discharge (i) any liability of SPAC, Holdings, the Target Companies and their respective Subsidiaries under this Agreement, any Ancillary Document or the Confidentiality Agreement (in each case to which it is party), (ii) any liability of any current or former employee of the Target Companies or any of their respective Subsidiaries to the extent (A) related to this Agreement, any Ancillary Document or the Transactions or (B) arising out of such employee’s service as an officer, director or employee of the Target Companies or any of their respective Subsidiaries, (iii) any Fraud Claim by any Company Shareholder or (iv) any claims that cannot be waived under applicable Law.

(c) The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Company Affiliates and the SPAC Affiliates are intended third-party beneficiaries of this Section 12.1.

13.2 Binding Effect; Assignment. Subject to Section 13.3, this Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement shall not be assigned by operation of Law or otherwise prior to the Closing without the prior written consent of SPAC, Holdings and the Company. Any assignment without such consent shall be null and void; provided that no such assignment shall relieve the assigning Party of its obligations hereunder.

13.3 Third Parties. Except for the rights of (a) the D&O Indemnified Persons set forth in Section 8.19, (b) the rights of the Company Affiliates set forth in Section 12.1, (c) the rights of the SPAC Affiliates set forth in Section 12.1 and (d) the rights of the Nonparty Affiliates set forth in Section 13.13, respectively, which the Parties acknowledge and agree are express third party beneficiaries of this Agreement, nothing contained in this Agreement or in any instrument or document executed by any party in connection with the Transactions shall create any rights in, or be deemed to have been executed for the benefit of, any Person that is not a Party or thereto or a successor or permitted assign of such a Party.

13.4 Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts executed in and to be performed in that State (other than with respect to the effects of the Merger which shall be governed by the laws of the Cayman Islands). All legal actions and proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be heard and determined exclusively in any Delaware Chancery Court; provided, however, that if jurisdiction is not then available in the Delaware Chancery Court, then any such legal Action may be brought in any federal court located in the State of Delaware or any other Delaware state court. The Parties hereby (a) irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts for themselves and with respect to their respective properties for the purpose of any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any Party and (b) agree not to commence any Action relating thereto except in the courts described above in Delaware, other than Actions in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce any judgment, decree or award rendered by any such court in Delaware as described herein. Each Party further agrees that notice as provided herein shall constitute sufficient service of process and the Parties further waive any argument that such service is insufficient. Each Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion or as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Transactions, (i) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the courts in Delaware as described herein for any reason, (ii) that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (c) that (i) the Action in any such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (ii) the venue of such Action is improper or (iii) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts.

13.5 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, ANY ANCILLARY DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS. EACH PARTY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THAT FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 13.5.

13.6 Specific Performance. Each Party acknowledges that the rights of each Party to consummate the Transactions are unique, recognizes and affirms that in the event of a breach of this Agreement by any Party, money damages may be inadequate and the non-breaching Parties may not have adequate remedy at law, and agree that irreparable damage may occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed by an applicable Party in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, each Party shall be entitled to seek an injunction, specific performance or other equitable remedy to prevent or remedy any breach of this Agreement and to seek to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, in each case, without the requirement to post any bond or other security or to prove that money damages would be inadequate, this being in addition to any other right or remedy to which such Party may be entitled under this Agreement, at law or in equity.

13.7 Severability. In case any provision in this Agreement shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in a jurisdiction, such provision shall be modified or deleted, as to the jurisdiction involved, only to the extent necessary to render the same valid, legal and enforceable, and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby nor shall the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision be affected thereby in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties will substitute for any invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision a suitable and equitable provision that carries out, so far as may be valid, legal and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.

13.8 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended, supplemented or modified only by execution of a written instrument signed by each of SPAC and the Company.

13.9 Waiver. Each of SPAC, Holdings, the Company and the Company Shareholders, may in its sole discretion (a) extend the time for the performance of any obligation or other act of any other Party, (b) waive any inaccuracy in the representations and warranties by such other Party contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and (c) waive compliance by such other Party with any covenant or condition contained herein. Any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the Party or Parties to be bound thereby, and any such extension or waiver shall only be binding upon the Party or Parties so providing the extension or waiver. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure or delay by a Party in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any other right hereunder.

13.10 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Ancillary Documents and the Confidentiality Agreement collectively set out the entire agreement between the Parties in respect of the subject matter contained herein and therein and, save to the extent expressly set out in this Agreement, the Ancillary Document or the Confidentiality Agreement, supersede and extinguish any prior drafts, agreements, undertakings, representations, warranties, promises, assurances and arrangements of any nature whatsoever, whether or not in writing, relating thereto.
